I have two questions: 1. Is there a Dovecot socket? What is the output from: # ls -al /var/spool/postfix/private/auth 2. Could it be an application in your network filters SMTP? You telnet to "mail.biggdog.biz", but "smtp.passthru" answers. If there's a filter, does it filter AUTH and maybe also STARTTLS? p(a)rick > > > This is my outpu from > > > telnet mail.biggdog.biz > > > 220 smtp.passthru > > > EHLO client.biggdog.biz > > > 250-smtp.passthru > > > 250-SIZE 51200000 > > > 250-VRFY > > > 250-ETRN > > > 250-ENHANCEDSTATUSCODES > > > 250-8BITMIME > > > 250 DSN > > =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- > Scanned with Copfilter Version 0.84beta3a (ProxSMTP 1.6) > AntiVirus: ClamAV 0.96/11020 - Sat May 15 23:13:16 2010 > by Markus Madlener @ http://www.copfilter.org -- All technical questions asked privately will be automatically answered on the list and archived for public access unless privacy is explicitely required and justified. saslfinger (debugging SMTP AUTH): <http://postfix.state-of-mind.de/patrick.koetter/saslfinger/>

Especially Cisco-systems are known to mess up SMTP Traffic, so is there a Router or similar in your network which could possibly do odd things? BTW: Please don't top post. Thank you! -- MfG Jan
From: "BABEDH-DHRA" on 16 May 2010 18:27 I am using a non standard port 2525 for both incoming and outgoing mail. I am using IPCop + COPFilter for my firewall. No router but just the other box for IPCop. Now I did have a special program installed so my mail could be filtered through port 2525 instead of the standard port 25. This came directly from the programmer. I have tried both ways of doing it the Cyrus and Dovecot. I still think it may have something to do with mysql database since my mail server is "Debian Lenny-amd-64 mail server uses Postfix driven virtual mailbox domains stored in a MySQL database, managed by PostfixAdmin and phpMyAdmin." Any other suggestions? > -----Original Message----- > From: owner-postfix-users(a)postfix.org [mailto:owner-postfix- > users(a)postfix.org] On Behalf Of Jan Kohnert > Sent: Sunday, May 16, 2010 5:48 PM > To: postfix-users(a)postfix.org > Subject: Re: Postfix, SASL sending mail through Postfix. > > BABEDH-DHRA schrieb: > > mail:~# ls -al /var/spool/postfix/private/auth > > srw-rw---- 1 postfix postfix 0 2010-05-16 11:33 > > /var/spool/postfix/private/auth > > That looks sane, too. > > > I am not sure about your second question. > > Especially Cisco-systems are known to mess up SMTP Traffic, so is there > a Router or similar in your network which could possibly do odd things? > > BTW: Please don't top post.
